Chapter 561: Face, Sometimes It's OK Not to Drop (Second Update)

Chapter 561 face, sometimes it is okay not to drop

"There's sugar water boiling at home, I'm going to go back and see the fire first", this is the attitude of Inspector Renault to ignore the new Commissioner of Police, Hong Kong people naturally understand this, but the dandy's language talent is good enough, and he said this sentence in English very well, and even has a bit of New York slang flavor.

The threat of eating fruit is much more fierce than Frankie's cruel words just now, which makes Edward and others regret letting "The Expendables" be released independently, if the release of "The Expendables" was coerced and lured at that time, although it offended Chen Jin fiercely, but it also expressed their tough posture and bottom line, which was conducive to the immediate negotiations. After all, it's normal to have occasional conflicts, but they can't be ignited at critical times.

However, at that time, everyone's mentality was very complicated, for example, they wanted Chen Jin to touch the nail and know the difficulty of the distribution, and when the time came, they would have more say in the future cooperation; For another example, the release time of "The Expendables" happened to be a little before the negotiation of the profit sharing of the film script in the second half of the year, and everyone was not good at holding a cane with open fire, for fear of angering Chen Jin; For example, no one wants to be this evil person, most of them are watching from the sidelines, and the obstruction plan they come up with is too gentle.

Of course, more importantly, Chen Jin and Jin Chen Film Group have too much temptation for distributors, Chen Jin's script and ability to make movies have been verified for more than two years, and have basically become an unshakable reality, that is not one movie a year, but dozens, if there is one, those distributors will definitely not dare to take it, but with enough benefits, everyone can take the greatest risk to do this work.

Even, Edward and others thought that the publishers of this global distribution could suddenly join forces to wrestle with them.

This world is like this, with the first time, it is difficult to control it after that, look at the eyes, there is only one in the first half of the year, and four films will start in the second half of the year, according to this trend, within two years, the five major producers will stand aside.

Regret is regret, the situation in front of you has to deal with, and, whether it is a share or a distribution right, naturally it can't be Chen Jin's final say, or the previous words, no matter how ruthless you say, since you opened your mouth, it proves that there is room for maneuver, so William Campbell, who has always pretended to be a good man and is unwilling to talk more, stood up and made a joke first, easing the atmosphere, "King, no matter how the negotiation is, what I want to protest is that the snacks you made were provided here before, but now they are gone, I think you're very unkind to that."

Chen Jin shrugged his shoulders and joked, "No way, dear William, Barbara also complained to me at home that all the snacks were eaten, but I just came back, and I have to discuss this with you when I get up in the morning, where is the time for me!" ”

Receiving the same kind response, William Campbell slyly avoided the whole conflict, and instead had a discussion on the distribution rights in the first place, "King, let's do it, if you divide it, everyone should have more tacit understanding, let's talk about the distribution rights first, the distribution of "The Expendables" is all operated by yourself, although the box office is good now, but there are still many flaws during the period, and even the global distribution has not really been completed,"

"The condition we can agree to is that you can still have a movie released in the second half of the year, but we will help you complete everything, so that you can learn the real and complete distribution model and global distribution channels, and there is no secret that there are too many things you don't know, if you are familiar with it, at least you can save more than 10% of the benefits,"

"Even, if there is a consensus on the distribution right, we can have a small concession on the share as compensation"..., the distribution share is ultimately related to the distribution right, William Campbell and others insist on giving only one, that is to say, the distribution right is still standing still, they can delay the possibility of Jinchen Film Group entering the distribution channel in advance, in that way, all the distribution rights of Jinchen Film Group are still in their hands - to give up a little benefit in the share is compared with the complete loss of distribution rights, it is just a drizzle, therefore, William Campbell is so "generous".

Chen Jin naturally understood this, and responded with a smile: "No, no, no, dear William, it should be that we have more sincerity, but I think more independent distribution can be beneficial to our company's understanding of the entire film industry." ”

Obviously, everyone is a long-term vision, and the control of the distribution right has become the biggest disagreement at present, and he has not spoken, Paramount's Baker frowned at this time, "If this stalemate continues, everyone can really only sit and wait for lunch, of course, I definitely don't mind eating a lunch made by King." ”

He also made a joke before he said: "Can we have a more compromise plan, the interests of the issuance right are too involved, we must also be responsible to the shareholders of the company, and the most important thing is to satisfy everyone in the protection of their own interests, what do you think?" ”

"Since Mr. Baker said so, you must already have your idea." Chen Jin made a gesture of please, "I'd love to hear your opinion, and if you can reach it as soon as possible, I'll be happy to make a chef's drip for you." ”

Baker nodded, "I thought about it, I don't know if everyone agrees or not, that is, we can let you have the distribution rights of two movies every time you release the script in the future, that is, you should be able to get the independent distribution rights of four films a year, but we must agree that in the next four years, this cannot change anything."

is cunning and cunning, for four years, Chen Jin almost wanted to smack him in the face, he still wanted to eat at a loss, Nana's, he couldn't feed the dog to him, Chen Jin simply didn't answer, and Dennis opened his mouth, "We agree with this form of cooperation, but the conditions have to be changed, that is, every time the script is released, we can get the independent distribution rights of four films." And we're only committed to making no changes for two years."

Dennis Zhang also bites the premise of every script, there is actually a big conspiracy hidden in it, that is, Playboy will soon change from two to three times a year, then, if there are four films at a time, it will be twelve films a year, then how big it is.

Beck, he's not stupid, he's very smart, he didn't say once every six months, because once Chen Jin suddenly ran out of talent and changed to only publish a script once a year, it would be a big loss, and he said that every time he released a script, he wanted to urge Chen Jin to be able to publish a script twice a year, but he didn't expect that Chen Jin had the possibility of publishing a script three times a year, perhaps, in his mind, he felt that twice a year was already the limit.

However, he didn't expect it, but someone thought of it, Edward's old fox smiled and said, "I think this form of cooperation is also good, but since there are two movie distribution rights according to each script, then we should also have a limit on the number of scripts produced each time, otherwise, if King just publishes two scripts every time, we will be finished if they are published more than a dozen times a year." ”

The guy was smiling, and Dennis was about to kick him in the face with such a good temper, but he remained silent and just insisted; "The number of scripts produced each time and the number of scripts produced in a year can be discussed, but we insist that every time a script is released, there must be the distribution rights of four films." ..., this simple thing is getting more and more complicated, from the number of scripts produced each time, to the distribution rights after each script, and the number of years that this form of cooperation lasts.

However, in the next negotiations this morning, the playboy was basically a spectator, or he was talking to the eldest and youngest grandmother in Qingqing, and this boring waste of saliva was really not what he loved.

It's noon, he doesn't mean to invite the five major producers to dinner, as for the five major producers, they also have to discuss in a timely manner and make more preparations for the final negotiations in the future, after all, this is a matter of the next few years, and it must be very hard to rip off, where is there still the heart to eat.

Downstairs, the reporters were waiting in the parking lot, the parking lot was almost blocked, they all surrounded as soon as they went, this time, both Chen Jin and the five major producers stopped, the first question was asked to Chen Jin, "King, is this negotiation going well, are you reaching any conditions for cooperation." ”

"Not yet!" Chen Jinyi's words made everyone a little shocked, but what he said next was like a joke, "You know, I'm an honest person, I really don't understand this kind of rounding around the negotiation, I almost fell asleep, or I suddenly found my stomach protesting, I just knew that I had to have lunch." ”

At this time, a guy probably wanted to sow discord and make the scene more popular, and asked MGM's Tyron, "Mr. Taryn, last time you said that King was an insatiable guy with a character problem, do you still insist on thinking so?" ”。

It's a pity that Taryn is a cunning old fox, and his skin is extremely thick, he climbed Chen Jin's shoulder with a smile and scolded: "Nonsense, I have never said anything like that, it was made up by some reporters in order to win attention, I have always admired and respected King"

Some people say that most of the time, people's faces are actually optional, and Taryn is like this at this time, his face is not red and he is telling lies, "If I see the relevant remarks again, I will send him a lawyer's letter, so that the guy can't eat and walk around." ”

However, doing this in this industry is nothing at all, and even, there is a tacit understanding between the entertainment reporters and the big shots, and it is always bad to do too much, and it is always bad to be in a hurry, for example, if you make up nonsense today that he is getting along with a female star, there are unspoken rules, he can't really sue you, but he occasionally cheats, and you must not expose him, so that he can't get off the stage, this is not a big matter, but it is to offend people to death, but you have to be careful that people are worried about you.
